It is set to be a double-pronged event, the Black Mask Ball & the Unveiling of the Y! Magazine 2.0.

Details have now been unveiled for Y! Magazine’s Annual Black Ball. An
end-of-the-year celebration for the cool set, the first edition will
hold on Sunday, 16 December, 2012 at the Crystal Ballroom of the
Landmark Events Centre, Victoria Island, Lagos.

“Y! Magazine has kept its promise as a cultural connoisseur –
presenting the best and the finest of Nigerian entertainment, lifestyle
and issues,” said its managing editor, Adebola Williams. “What this
event does is celebrate another year for young trendsetters – great
wine, fine dining, the best company delivered with the sophistication of
the Y! brand. We are grateful to BlackBerry, continuing its tradition of
driving connectivity and networking, for presenting this first edition.”

The event is hosted by rapper MI Abaga and the 3 Live Chicks including
Tosyn Bucknor and Oreka Godis. Dress code is Black with Masks, with the
organisers presenting guests with masks at the venue. The black carpet
is hosted by rave fashion TV show, GlamSquad led by Style editor;

In addition to all of this, the brand new, re-modeled Y! Magazine will
be presented to the public – with a first-of-its kind cover identity as
well as content re-energized for its audience. Each of the selected 300
guests will receive the very first edition of the auto-graphed
magazines. Also to be unveiled with the magazine is the Annual Y! Best
Dressed List – which will profile the 20 young celebrities who define
the style and look of a generation.

“It’s a ball! So how about some end-of-year games?” Williams teases.
“We are letting our hair down and getting a little playful. The
excitement doesn't end when you receive the gorgeous masks at the venue.
That’s just the beginning of an evening that will be a delightful
experience.”

The timeless Cinderella fairytale will also come alive on the evening.

SO ITS NOW OFFICIAL- MAJE PROPOSES TO TOKE ON BENDED KNEES.

We are still on the subject of love. We think many many things- weddings, engagement would be happening this year oooooo. It's like many have made up their minds that, this year 2012 would not pass them by. 

Just about some days back, Maje Ayida, who is Toke Makinwa's longtime beau, declared his heartfelt love to her on bended knees and asked for her hand in marriage. And the deliciously beautiful bride to be, who is an OAP with the Rhythm 93.7 FM station, while also an anchor for 3 Live Chicks and who would be hosting the 25th Anniversary of the Most Beautiful Girl Pageant in Edo State, we hear was completely swept off her feet.

We hear their love dance has been on since about 8 years now, and about 2 Thursdays ago, the suave, young man, who is into the health and fitness business-he owns Edenlifestyle Nigeria, right after coming home from a dinner date with the love of his life, like a perfectly orchestrated movie love scene, went down on one knee, and allowed the roman goddess of love-Venus to inspire his words, as he declared his love for Toke and asked her to marry him. Toke, the hopeless romantic we heard, just melted in the embrace of love and accepted whole-hearted.

Now that part 1 is out of the way. The duo are keeping their other plans very close to their hearts, but be sure we would give you all the details as they unveil. Congratulations to them.

TOKE & MAJE
